Before beginning installation
o Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the
chosen installation area. In addition check whether there is an
electrical socket available that will be accessible once the hood is
mounted. If the product is going to be used in extraction mode,
then there should also be space to connect a ducting hose to the
outside.
o Carry out all necessary masonry work prior to the fitting of the
cooker hood.
o Ensure that all electrical connections are carried out by a suitably
qualified person.
o Check inside the product and ensure that there is no transit
packaging or any other materials, such as packets of screws,
guarantees etc. These should be removed and kept for future
use.
o If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slot-in cookers
from their position, to provide easier access to the ceiling. If this
is not possible, then a thick, protective covering should be
placed over the worktop, hob top or cooker. This will help to
protect these surfaces from damage and debris.
o Select a flat surface for assembling the cooker hood. Cover that
surface with a protective covering and place all cooker hood
parts and fittings on it.
o Wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of
ceilings. However a qualified technician must verify the
suitability of the materials, in accordance with the type of ceiling.
The ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the
hood.
o Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the ceiling. This
appliance is designed to be surface mounted only.
o Remove any protective wrapping that has been put on the
cooker hood or chimney sections, to protect them during transit.
